free elections were held and hundreds, maybe thousands of al qaeda-inspired militants were killed. but the war also created thousands more. iraq didn't become a stable u.s.-friendly democracy, but a shiite-led state with close ties to iran, still at war with itself. a big legacy of the iraq war is that extreme reluctance by the white house to become more involved in other foreign conflicts, especially the one in syria right now. here in jerusalem, the president is expected to arrive tomorrow. syria is just next door. it will be on the agenda as that conflict gets even more violent. today there are reports in syria of a chemical weapons attack. they are still not confirmed. both sides, the rebels and the government are trading accusations. u.s. officials are trying to determine if chemical weapons were even used. if they were, it could be a tipping point and trigger deeper u.s. involvement. brian? >> richard engel in israel prior to the president's arrival there. richard, thanks. >>> now we turn to the vatican. a remarkable scene today in st. peter's square. pope francis, celebratin

that's not going to be enough to win a popular election. i also don't think with hillary that she has grown tremendously as a candidate. you look back at 1992 when she got beat up for saying i'm not sitting here like tammy wynett, standing by my man, and then she got beaten up for hillary care and that failed. you saw her blossom as a senator, run for president and unlike other failed presidential candidates, she didn't retreat. she actually grew even more. i think that her gravitas has grown tremendously. >> hillary has established a the lo of credibility but when you look at the damage that they've done to the republican brand, that's why i showed what crist would do against the sitting government, rick scott. christie's approval rating is 74%. mind you, ed, christie also embraced president obama so his approval rating soared. how can republicans escape the drag created by the poor brand of their party? >> well, rev, it's pretty easy. they've got a path to citizenship and that may take off some on the far right but so be be it. they are l

a normal re-election of a president election in 2012. because with the complicity of the press, the issue of romney and being a corporate predator and all of that had become as big or bigger an issue than obama's actual record in the first four years. >> so in reading, you get the impression you feel like you are surrounded by journalists that are all liberal? >> yeah. >> do they tell you what they think?. >> no, they used to when i was younger and was out covering campaigns al the time, but i certainly read them, and it has not changed. >> you know what the liberals would say when they are sitting here talking to you. >> yeah. >> the conservatives whining when they have rush limbaugh and sean hannity and a lot of other talk show hosts. they have weekly standard and the washington examiner and fox news. >> yeah. well, there is an alternative conservative media that did not used to exist. >> how has that changed this world? how has that changed this town? >> washington is a liberal town. it really has not changed washington much. more job

and this is when we had a much more successful election, the parliamentarian elections and so forth. there was an opportunity, i believe, at that stage to consolidate some gains and to move toward a sustainable political outcome. and we know that some of those efforts failed or weren't sufficient to consolidate those gains. and so the future of iraq is, obviously, very much in question beyond this point, but i think it's very important to understand that these conflicts evolve over time, and we're fighting enemies there who have a say in the future course of events, and we need to talk more about those enemies. what are they trying to achieve, what are their goals, what are their strategies? because then we could inform the public about what the stakes are. but instead we talk about only us, and we talk about only our number of troops and what we did and as if everything we did led to the outcome without any interaction with those against whom we're fighting. >> let's open the conversation now, and -- [laughter] i think what we'll do given the number of hands i see is we'll take two
